The season so far: Telyn (Blue 3J) arrived back 30 March and Monty on 1 April. Telyn laid 3 eggs 17, 20 and 23 April hatching 26, 27 and 29 May. Telyn and Monty continue to work hard to raise their young and Monty is once more proving to be an excellent provider bringing in plenty of fish to feed his family.

Osplet foot:
Monty brought a whole not-flounder !!!
Cam was zoomed in on chicks so missed the drop-in:
To make up for it, he then brought an awkward stick:
Caused an upset on landing:
Then seemed to deliberately press it down on 2 chicks:
More muddles followed before the stick was satisfactorily placed, then Monty flew off:
Leaving Telyn with her left foot caught in the sticks, it took a bit of time and jiggling to untangle it:
An impressive poop that cleared even further than it looks, it didn't touch the nest :)

Telyn sorting herself out:
And Monty - what a mess!

It took Monty 20 minutes to fetch breakfish this morning, and it wasn't a flounder!
